Change home directory and..

[Tony C]

Hi,

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro running OSX El Capitan.

The other day my Sata drive failed and I decided to change the main drive to an SSD to speed up boot/applications etc.

I installed the SSD along with a secondary 1TB Sata for all of my other files.

After a fresh install, I changed my home directory to the second mounted 1TB drive via System preferences.

Everything looked good UNTIL I tried installing Teamviewer. I am installing Teamviewer on the BOOT (SSD) drive however it opens for a few seconds and closes.

I have a feeling this has to do with the drives and different home directory but I can't seem to figure out the problem. I'm not sure but I feel the application is looking for files/folders which it cannot find.

Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

Just checked the system logs and noticed the following, just not sure how I should fix it. I was thinking a symlink or something but not sure how to do it:

Jan 6 11:20:20 MacPro com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.teamviewer.desktop[24697]): Service could not initialize: Unable to set current working directory. error = 2: No such file or directory, path = /Volumes/DISK/Applications/TeamViewer.app/Contents/Helpers: 15C50: xpcproxy + 12028 [1353][13E77DA5-3602-31BF-B074-49D4EE27E9D8]: 0x2

What version of TeamViewer did you install?

Hello and welcome.

It definitely could have something to do with the home folder not residing on the startup drive, but not necessarily.

Del's question is a good place to start.
